    I've thus far had great results with the 11.11 drivers posted above (no unexplainable screen tearing issues, decent performance). Thanks for posting them.

    For those who are curious, I have a DV6T-6100QE with a 6770M. In order to get these installed on the HP model, I first uninstalled the old drivers with ATI's tool in the control panel, installed HP's drivers from 9/16/11 and then installed the drivers hyperlinked above over HP's 9/16/11 drivers.
